About this listen

A balanced account of game changes, conflicts and ambitions. The fall from popular grace of the previously adulated brother of the heir to the British throne as a consequence of his marriage to a beautiful and dynamic Hollywood starlet of colour makes for fascinating listening in best-selling royal author Lady Colin Campbell's balanced account.

Lady Colin knows her royal history and psychology, and as the first seven years of her adult life were spent in the USA, she has a foot in both the American and British camps. With unique breadth of insight she goes behind the scenes, speaking to friends, relations, courtiers, and colleagues on both sides of the Atlantic to reveal the most unexpected royal story since the Abdication.

She highlights the dilemmas involved and the issues that lurk beneath the surface, as to why the couple decided to step down as senior royals. She analyses the implications of the actions of a young and ambitious couple in love with each other and with the empowering lure of fame and fortune.

She leads the listener through the maze of contradictions, revealing how Californian culture has influenced the couple's conduct. She exposes how they tried and failed to change the royal system by adapting it to their own needs and ambitions and, upon failing, how they decided to create a new system altogether.

lady c has the real inside story again

Good info, analysis, and understanding.

MM is a bold operator of the first order, and her career will be fascinating to watch. Her great failings seem to be an addiction to self-marketing endless myths of great personal virtue (quite against all factual evidence), and a constant temptation to exaggeration and factual fabrication. And also a habit of massive, ambition-driven, minute-by-minute insincerity.

However, as I have watched her actions since her wedding: I'd never bet against her.

MM (and her practices and methods) will, I hope, be a magnet for serious biographers. She's earned that. She's at least as energetic and bold as the more famous of our internet billionaires.

Harry may also find his way toward a career he values; he seems to be on the way toward promoting psychological treatment access, which is a huge positive if he handles it well.

i hope Harry finds a great path; he seems like he is normally a nice guy; and since they now have children, I wish them every *honorable* success.

While I have cause to regret strongly so many of their choices since the wedding, those choices are in stone now. So ... they will move forward, and I hope it goes well (sans using royalty and the royal family as a promotional factor; they've gotten their mileage there.) Surely no one wants more damage.

I hope MM and Harry stop finding ways to spin/invent "facts", and stop finding excuses to denigrate other persons and organizations during the process of pushing their own personal narratives and brands forward.

Kudos to Lady C for ferocious fact-finding and penetrating understanding. She's been proven right before, and she will be proven right this time as well.
I hope she does a follow-up book or books; MM and Harry have been so busy that this book already needs a "part 2".

The MM and Harry marketing and business teams must find these two to be clients with narrative possibilities and boldness like no other.

So let's see what's next.

Excellent! A must read

This is an excellent inside account of what was really going on behind the scenes. It really connects the dots and reveals the unbelievable amount lies these two put out. It is actually very balanced but it is a brutally honest account of their terrible behavior. Since this was written 2 years ago and the behaviors and betrayals have continued on and actually destroyed all their family relationships (except for the mil) I wonder if some of the angry negative reviewers might see things much differently by now. This is better than Bowers biography but even Lady C says read his too. This is a study in narcissism and how it destroys everything it touches.

Good picture of the unbounded arrogance of Meghan marble

Very much enjoyed this book although I found myself getting worked up as the full picture of how ruthless and mean mm is- hard to believe anyone given all the privileges of royalty and a world stage could squander it in such a way!

Wow!

Tell us how you really feel! I can’t believe the royal family can even have Lady Campbell in their lives.

open and honest

I was a bit dubious about this book. I enjoyed it greatly. I also liked that the Author has personal contacts to form her story around. it felt balanced and I could not decide if the author liked either Harry or Megan. it is well written and narration good. I intend to listen to her other works now.

Manual on how to be classy

I specially enjoyed the explanations of why M’s breach in etiquette seemed so dumb to the US but so important to the British. I learned a lot.

A very articulate and interesting account.

I only wish more details were included about the behind the scenes stories and issues about their wedding. Other than that, the descriptions of Meghan's influences on Harry, and how his personality changed since knowing her, plus the differences between how the Royals,the people of the UK and their Press have regarded M&H and Americans is very interesting. Narrator sounded good and made me want to hear more.

Henpecked & Magpie Coming To American

I love Lady C and her open assessment of this very spoiled couple, however as an American, I feel she lumps all the wonderful, hardworking, average Americans as obsessed with “woke” Hollywood personalities. Most are definitely NOT. If Henpecked had not been the very spoiled man-child he is, perhaps the Royals would have treated him from the beginning, like any other traitor but they allowed him to live life as the spoiled weak man-child. He married his perfect match and he has a new “Mama”. Other than that, I really enjoyed the book. :)
